Foreword
In the project „Musik zum Anfassen“ (Hands-on Music) in cooperation with the Vienna University of Music and Performing Arts, advanced students from various institutes of the University of Music participate in the realisation of events designed to impart an interest in music.
The project "Musik zum Anfassen" aims to reach a broad basis while at the same time meeting the demand to promote music education. It is oriented toward children and adolescents, stimulates curiosity about music and classical instruments and overcomes inhibitions. The experience-oriented means of communication, addressing all the senses and activating creativity, is a central objective of the project, practical and enriching, both for the target group and the enacting students during their studies. The intention is to set an accent in culture and educational politics while using already available resources.
The cooperation with the Vienna University of Music and Performing Arts involves chamber music and other activities of the students, puts the goals of courses into practice and leads to the gaining of wide-reaching experiences for both instructors and students.
